Omelette Monday - Mushroom Omelette

Hello!

Omelette Monday is back and today the choice was Mushroom Omelette - Eating this omelette requires a great love of mushrooms. Not only are they on top, but they are also inside AND mixed with the egg.

And I did this exactly: mushrooms everywhere in this omelette. But, as I used canned mushrooms, I had to add a little extra flavour so it wouldn't be such a bland omelette.

If you want to try my version of this omelette you will need:

- 2 or 3 eggs + splash of milk

- 1 small can of sliced mushrooms

- bit of oil

- pinch of salt

- 1 teaspoon of duck fat (this is just for flavour, if you don't have it leave it out or use butter instead but be careful not to burn the butter)

- 1/4 teaspoon of DUCCA spice blend

- 1/4 teaspoon of Garam Masala (if you don't have these spices, just use whatever pleases you the most regarding seasoning, or you can even leave these out)

Start by draining the mushrooms and rinse under running water. Squeeze to remove the excess water and make a selection: about 8 or 9 of the prettiest slices to garnish, and the rest divide in two - one part for filling and one part to mix with the egg. This part to mix with the egg chop it very finely.

Beat the eggs in a bowl with the milk and a pinch of salt and set aside.

In the frying pan you will be making the omelette, add in the teaspoon of duck fat and heat it on medium heat. Add in the chopped mushrooms, let them absorb most of the fat and remove from the heat. Add this mixture into the beaten eggs and mix to combine. Put the frying pan back on medium-low heat with a bit of oil so the omelette doesn't stick to the bottom and pour in the egg and mushroom mixture. While the omelette is coagulating, add the DUCCA spice blend to the filling mushrooms, mix to coat each slice and add to one half of the omelette. When the omelette is almost completely coagulated, with the help of a spatula fold it over itself. Remove from the heat and put it on a plate.

Add the Garam Masala to the garnish mushrooms and mix to coat every slice evenly. Display on top of the omelette as garnish, just like on the image. 

Enjoy!

The food will be rated from 1 to 5 stars, meaning:

⭐ - This could be part of gross foods! Ugh :(

⭐⭐ - Waste of ingredients but edible...

⭐⭐⭐ - Ok. Not my favourite thing but also not that bad

⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Now this has a lot of neopotential :D

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Wow! Was this created by fairies?! Yummy!

Now remember that this is, obviously, my opinion only ;)

Mushroom Omelette - ⭐⭐⭐⭐ - This rating is not mine but my boyfriend's. He is the one who eats most of the omelettes I make. He rated this omelette with 4 stars because it was very good and he loved the seasoning. The only thing "meh" about it was that it was a lot of the same thing.
